Reunited Season Finale: The cast happily leaves the Palms one last time with no regrets

On this final episode of Reunited, we see the cast start to wrap up their experience in the Palms Hotel/Casino for what may be the last time ever. The group goes to the Augustana concert and Frank (Las Vegas) and Arissa (Las Vegas) remark about how they are both glad they did the reunion, but are ready to leave. Steven (Las Vegas) is still angry at Alton (Las Vegas) for the remark he made at the Mint, and isn't sure that he would ever be friends with him.

As the group is in the suite, Awesome Anne, the motivational speaker that helped them the first time around, came to speak to the group once again to see if some of the relationships in the group can be repaired and some ill-feelings be alleviated. Most of the cast were under the impression that the experience was done, so no one is particularly receptive to Awesome Anne's advice. Alton leaves the group several times, especially after feelings about Irulan (Las Vegas) begin to surface. Trishelle (Las Vegas) and Steven seem to be opposed to the idea of Awesome Anne giving them advice.

When Awesome Anne asks the group to criticize each other, the group collectively agrees that they don't want to do that on the last day. The group does end up complimenting each other. Alton ends up getting some sort of closure with his relationship with Irulan as a result. However, he and Steven will seem to leave Las Vegas with a broken friendship.

The cast is at the pool next and they begin closing the pool as bees swarm the pool deck. Brynn (Las Vegas) actually gets stung and the group enjoys one last bit of fun as they take turns dressing the wound back up in the suite.

It's time for the cast to leave. Alton leaves first. Brynn is then greeted by Austin, Halen, and Nash, and she seems relieved that the experience is over and is looking forward to doing some laundry. Arissa (Las Vegas) and Irulan leave next, and they leave together, which is a change from how they came into the house, as near enemies. The last to leave are Frank, Steven and Trishelle who seem to be good friends. They remark that they will see each other in LA. Trishelle ends the season with appropriately saying that she knows in her heart that this will be the last time the seven of them are together.

Reunited Season Finale: Post your reactions here

Tonight is the last new episode of Las Vegas Reunited.

Say goodbye (once again) to the Las Vegas cast as they party it up one last time in Vegas. Maybe Trishelle (Las Vegas) said it most appropriately when she mentioned that she knew it in her heart that this would be the last time the seven of them would ever be together.

Post your reactions here.

Reunited Episode #5: The cast gets into the Playboy Suite, Frank doesn't want to date in Vegas, Brynn and Austin get action

In this episode of Reunited, we begin with Brynn (Las Vegas) sitting down and having a heart to heart with Arissa (Las Vegas). While the rest of the castmates seem to be envious of Brynn, her husband, and two kids, Brynn admits that she is a bit jealous of the life that her castmates have. She attributes it to the grass always being greener on the other side, but says that she would not choose the same path that her six roommates have.

Later, the cast attends a casting session at the Palms to find castmembers for the 20th season of the Real World. By the way, we're still in the first week of their arrival and on the fifth episode already. They don't take it so seriously, but Trishelle (Las Vegas) comes up with the idea to use the session to find Frank (Las Vegas) a girlfriend. Mostly because Frank has been hooking up with questionable girls. They choose three lucky ladies.

Later on, Alton (Las Vegas) calls George Maloof and personally asks him to allow the seven of them to stay in the Playboy $40,000 Suite. The Real World Suite runs about $1,500 a night, so the Playboy suite, which has apparently never been comped, is theirs for the night. Everyone is excited.

Frank goes on the date with the three girls. Frank ends up getting completely wasted, while embarrassing himself along with his good friend Steven (Las Vegas) by throwing limes at each other and eventually rejecting each girl.

The cast parties at the Playboy Suite that night, only to invite what seems like dozens of "lingerie models" to party along with them in the suite. At the end of the night, the cast gives the Suite to Brynn and Austin, telling them to make another baby. The two spend the night in the $40,000 suite.

Trishelle tells LAist how she was casted, what she's up to, and talks about her career

Trishelle (Las Vegas), who we've seen on Reunited, sits down with LAist and talks about her burgeoning career with her television show VIP Passport, her movie Ninja Cheerleaders, and just life after the Real World.

She mentions what it was like to get casted, how she felt like a dork in her casting video, and she reveals that she's only been in a relationship with three other Real World castmembers.

Check out the interview with LAist.

Reunited Episode #4: Arissa pisses everybody off and Trishelle becomes a ninja

The episode begins with Trishelle (Las Vegas) venting her frustrations to Frank (Las Vegas) and Steven (Las Vegas). The three seem to agree that the frustrations surrounding Arissa (Las Vegas) are not worth it. It seems like the group is separating itself into two distinct cliques at this point: those who party and those who don't. While this group seems to think that Arissa is just creating unnecessary drama, they don't want her to leave.

Brynn (Las Vegas) and Irulan (Las Vegas) go up to Arissa's hotel room that she requested for a night away from the roommates. They're fed up with the boys' male agression and violence and they feel that they can't live around the constant partying. Irulan admits that she's breaking down because she's living with Alton (Las Vegas), an ex-boyfriend that she had intense feelings for, which is hard to make go away.

Frank, meanwhile, wakes up fifteen minutes before in the Hardwood Suite, pretty drunk from the previous night. Frank, Steven, and Alton return to clean up the mess in the suite, but they also agree that the two girls overreacted to the situation. They don't like Arissa, but the point of the reunion is for the seven of them to be together once again, hence they don't want her to leave.

The two girls decide to stay. Frank apologizes to both Arissa, which is almost identical to the apology that occurred five years ago. Irulan also gets an apology, although they both think that he might not have wanted to necessarily apologize.

To make amends, Arissa cooks lasagna for the roommates, but although they all enjoy it, Alton and Trishelle both say that they would have rather had Arissa cut down on her dramatics rather than cook them dinner for a night as an apology.

Finally, Trishelle introduces the roommates into her movie, Ninja Cheerleaders. The movie is a hit with her roommates and they celebrate with a huge party in the Palms nightclub.

Reunited Episode #4: Will Irulan come back? Arissa and Trishelle throw down

Tonight's episode of Reunited has the cast at a crossroads. After the incident in which Frank (Las Vegas) gleeked at Irulan (Las Vegas), Irulan threatened to leave the house, and at least left the suite for the time being. At the same time, Arissa (Las Vegas) left the house after she found broken dishware in teh kitchen. She threatened to leave the house as well.

We'll see the two resolve their issues with Frank, but Trishelle will have a fight with Arissa, after Trishelle tells Arissa that she believes that she is overreacting to the mess in the house.

Tune in tonight and post your reactions here.

Reunited Episode #3: Post your reactions

The cast gets trashed even more. It's guys night out, Trishelle (Las Vegas) throws Brynn (Las Vegas) her bachelorette party, and Irulan (Las Vegas) feels compelled to go home. Not to mention the fact that Arissa (Las Vegas) freaks out when everyone begins to get out of control.

This episode airs Wednesday. Post your reactions here.

Reunited Episode #2: Irulan, Alton, Arissa sorta settle their differences, Steven gets kicked out of the pool

The episode began where the last one left off. Arissa (Las Vegas) and Alton (Las Vegas) were fighting about the whole Florida incident. The two come to quickly realize that they're both going to stick to their version of their story, even if Alton and Irulan (Las Vegas) are no longer in a relationship.

The cast then gets invited to the Palms pool, which seems to be this great diversion for the cast, especially Frank (Las Vegas) and Steven (Las Vegas). Alton just wants to stay away from Arissa and Irulan. Apparently, the cast is given unlimited alcohol and Steven, drunk as a goat, throws some random girl into the pool. The promotion manager for the Palms lets Steven know that he is no longer welcome to the pool.

The cast gets massages at the spa and Alton announces to the boys that he will try to avoid drama at all costs.

The next night, the cast gets invites to individual group dinners. Irulan and Alton are to be paired together which freaks Irulan out. She refuses to go saying that her man back home would not enjoy that. She ends up going with Arissa and Alton ends up going with the guys. Brynn (Las Vegas) and Trishelle (Las Vegas) end up going to one too.

Meanwhile, Frank asks for forgiveness for Steven. The director will ask Maloof if it will be okay. Brynn and Trishelle talk to go over what happened with them the first time around. Even the two were roommates, they were never close. Trishelle felt offended that she wasn't invited to Brynn's wedding, but Brynn says it was only twenty people and Irulan wasn't even invited. They make up and Trishelle plans to throw her a belated bachelorette party.

Irulan and Arissa do clear the stink out of the air and look to be mending their friendship. When they walk up to Ghostbar hand in hand, this sends Alton scrambling for the door. Alton later meets up with Arissa in the casino and they mend fences as well.

Finally, Steven gets a reprieve and is allowed back into the pool. Frank has a drinking buddy again.

Alton (Las Vegas) and Arissa (Las Vegas) continue their fight from last week. Irulan (Las Vegas) also fights with Arissa once again.

Post your reactions here. This episode airs tonight at 10pm.

The Las Vegas cast does interviews with Inside Pulse revealing some new information

Over at Inside Pulse, the entire cast of the Real World: Las Vegas was recently interviewed last week as part of an ongoing special they had last week in which they celebrated the premiere of the Reunited series.

Each castmembers chatted with interviewer Josh Clinton about their decisions to come back onto the show. Surprisingly, many of them did not want to initially do the show again. You can check out the links to all the interviews on Inside Pulse's Interview page.

Among some small tidbits, Alton (Las Vegas) and Trishelle (Las Vegas) are not friends, there are still tensions abound with Arissa (Las Vegas), several of the castmembers claim they will never do a Challenge, and what they expect of the upcoming remaining episodes.

Steven and Trishelle didn't want to do the reunion, couldn't leave the Palms, say Las Vegas "ruined the Real World"

In an article with the Las Vegas Review Journal, both Steven (Las Vegas) and Trishelle (Las Vegas) were surprisingly negative about reuniting with their five other roommates.

"I wasn't thrilled about doing it to be honest," says Steven, who was ultimately convinced by Frank (Las Vegas) to do the reunion. Frank had been excited to reunite in the Palms Casino/Hotel five years later and eventually brought Steven on board. Trishelle, being the last hold out, "didn't want to be portrayed poorly again." Eventually, both Steven and Frank convinced Trishelle to do the show.

The article claims that the cast wasn't allowed to leave the Palms for two weeks. Steven says that "I thought this was going to be the most boring show ever." But it quickly became apparent that that wouldn't be the case as the cast was provided with $150,000 worth of bottle service for the two weeks. "The first time was kind of crazy, and I thought that now that we're all adults, we might get to actually know each other better instead of just drinking all the time." Trishelle says. I guess not.

And finally, almost everyone recognizes that Las Vegas was the season that changed everything. Steven doesn't hold back when he says, "We ruined The Real World." With its fights, sex, and alcohol provided 24-7, the series reached new heights with high ratings and new fans. But Steven points out the downside: When 'The Real World' started it was really something relevant. And now it's really not. It's the same thing over and over again. It's sex and drinking and fighting and stuff like that."

Pictures from last night's viewing party suggest that Arissa and Irulan have made up

Last night, the cast from Las Vegas reunited once again to watch the premiere episode of their Reunited season. The cast watched the first episode at the Lounge at the Palms Hotel/Casino last night.

The cast posed for pictures and you can see them here. Last night, we saw that Arissa (Las Vegas) being confronted by both Alton (Las Vegas) and Irulan (Las Vegas).

Well, it turns out that the two posed for pictures together and looked to be somewhat chummy. So, expect the two to squash their drama sometime soon. A couple of the castmembers have been approached about appearing on the next Challenge. More info on this later.

Reunited: Episode #1: The cast is uneasy, Arissa has it out with Irulan and Alton

The episode began where the casting preview left off. The cast had been awaiting Arissa (Las Vegas) to come up to the suite and there was obvious tension between Arissa and Irulan (Las Vegas). As she makes it up to the suite, she seems to be taken a little aback and seems a little subdued. The cast gets a letter from George Maloof, telling them that dinner is on him and they'll spend their first night in Vegas much like they spent their first night five years ago.

Brynn (Las Vegas) brings in her husband Austin and baby son to show the rest of the cast. It seems like somewhat of a mismatch with the Real World lifestyle, but Brynn herself says that she doesn't know if she'll be able to keep up.

The cast chooses rooms. Brynn and Irulan decide to room together because Irulan doesn't want to room with Arissa. Steven (Las Vegas) and Frank (Las Vegas) are close, so they get the other two person bedroom. This leaves Trishelle, Alton (Las Vegas) and Arissa to room in the three person bedroom. Those three are not happy.

The cast sits together at dinner and things are sufficiently awkward. There's uneasiness and uncertainity and Irulan insists that it has to do with Arissa being so guarded about things. Arissa acknowledges that she needs to have her guard up, since she and Irulan had a falling out four years ago.

Frank seems to be having a good time. He gets really drunk and he brings home a random girl. They fool around in the confessional. He confesses that he doesn't know her name and he basically sends her on her way when he's done with her.

Irulan and Arissa finally confront each other at the bar. It seems that four years ago, Alton, Arissa and Irulan were so tight, they called themselves "The Trinity." But four years ago, in a Florida nightclub, Alton and Arissa were in a bathroom, kissing. Each blames the other for coming onto each other. Arissa insists Alton came onto her. Alton insists Arissa came onto him. The two scream at each other, but only resolve to talk it out later with Alton.

The next morning at 7:45a, Alton and Arissa have it out, but the two just get angry and accuse each other of lying. Nothing seems to be resolved and the episode will be continued next week.

Oops! Susie says that The Sh*& They Should've Shown airs at 10, when Reunited airs

On last night's rather uneventful Denver Reunion, host Susie Castillo made a major oops when she said that Denver's Sh*& They Should've Shown would be airing on Wednesday May 30th.

Literally, ten seconds later, MTV flashed a banner advertising Reunited: The Real World Las Vegas at the same time.

Here's some clarification:

Wednesday, May 30
8pm - Denver Reunion Special
9pm - Denver Sh*& They Should've Shown
10pm - Reunited: The Real World Las Vegas

Tune in next Wednesday for some great television.

Reunited: The Real World Las Vegas casting special showed first five minutes of first episode

If you caught the casting special that aired on Saturday of Reunited: The Real World Las Vegas you're caught up to the story of our Vegas seven strangers.

We were updated on the cast's lives, we relived some of Vegas's craziest moments, and we got an exclusive sneak peek of the upcoming season premiere which airs on Tuesday, May 30 at 10PM.

The episode showed the cast arriving at the Palms and meeting each other at the Suite. Frank (Las Vegas) and Steven (Las Vegas) met downstairs in the casino. Brynn (Las Vegas) and Irulan (Las Vegas) also met downstairs in the casino. The two girls met the two boys. Alton (Las Vegas) comes next and he's ecstatic to see the cast, even Irulan, his ex. Trishelle (Las Vegas) then walks through the door and the cast is astounded by how good/different she looks. Then, finally, we see Arissa (Las Vegas) moving up to the suite.

There's been a lot of tension surrounding Arissa ever since the cameras stopped filming five years ago. Alton and Irulan both publically stated that they were unhappy with Arissa after leaving the house. But this was years ago. Apparently, Arissa alienated herself from the rest of her cast, hasn't talked to anyone, and knows that she's "gonna have to have it out with Irulan." We have to wait until next week to see what happens.

On the season preview: Trishelle throws a bachelorette party for married mother of two Brynn, Irulan chases Steven through one of the newer Fantasy Suites, the cast plays casino games for a chance to win some real money, Irulan cries on the phone that she wants to go home, Frank throws a bottle at Steven's head, Irulan and Arissa have a major argument in a bar, Alton and Arissa having an argument about Arissa being put in the middle of Alton and Irulan's relationship.

There will be a Las Vegas marathon beginning next Saturday, May 26 at 7pm.

Reunited: The Real World Las Vegas website opens and updates you on cast whereabouts

The website of Reunited: The Real World Las Vegas opened yesterday. It has pictures and cast biographies, updating you on what the seven strangers have been doing since they left Las Vegas five years ago. Visit the website.

Alton has been living in California. He broke up with Irulan two years ago and has a new girlfriend. He's looking forward to seeing her again.

Arissa now leaves on the beach with her cat and spends her time cooking and painting. Her bio alludes to leftover tensions between her and her castmates.

Brynn married Austin and now has two kids with him. They are both living in Portland.

Frank is living in California and is attending graduate school.

Irulan is living in New York. She is a photographer and is moving in with her new boyfriend. She too is excited to see Alton again.

Steven is now a personal trainer and going to school to get his degree in psychology. He seems to be more laidback then he was five years ago.

Trishelle has been bit by the acting bug and has a few movies under her belt. She probably has the most high profile career of the seven.

Tomorrow, the casting special airs at 1pm, plus MTV will be airing a marathon of the entire season fairly soon.

Commercial for Las Vegas Reunited shows new hairstyles, Frank and Arissa kissing

Yesterday, during the finale of Denver, MTV showed the first commercial of Reunited: The Real World Las Vegas.

It was an incredibly brief look at the new series, but it showed all seven castmembers arriving at the Palms and select scenes from the new season. Most notably, Irulan (Las Vegas) has a very different hairstyle, shorter than before. Brynn (Las Vegas) has longer hair and is now a brunette. Steven (Las Vegas) has shaved his head.

Two scenes were also shown last night. One was of Alton (Las Vegas) and Arissa (Las Vegas) either arguing or just playing around. The second was a kiss between Arissa and Frank.

The "Casting Special" which will update us on what the seven strangers have been up to. It will air this Saturday. Don't forget to catch it.

Las Vegas Reunited had two cliques; The new season preview airs this Saturday, premiere is May 30th

The Real World: Las Vegas cast has now departed from the Palms Hotel/Casino and it's been a few weeks now. The new season Reunited: The Real World Las Vegas is tentatively scheduled to air a preview special this Saturday, May 19 at 1PM (and again at 9PM). Prior to that, MTV is running a "MTV Special" all throughout the day, which most likely will be a marathon, but no word on that yet.

While the actual premiere is slated to begin on May 30th, MM Agency is already spoiling some information regarding the cast interaction. While the cast seemed to leave on good terms five years ago, it seems that the cast formed two distinct cliques while living in the loft. Frank (Las Vegas), Steven (Las Vegas), and Trishelle (Las Vegas) formed one group, while Alton (Las Vegas), Arissa (Las Vegas), Brynn (Las Vegas), and Irulan (Las Vegas) formed another.

Expect a lot of reminiscing, probably not much fights, and just an all-around good time. The cast wasn't living together for very long, they all are five years older, and are much savvier when it comes to reality television, many having gone through the process the first time, and a few going through subsequent Challenges later on. Should be interesting to catch up with these strangers though. Keep tuned in to find more.

(Remember, this week marks the season finale of The Real World: Denver)

Las Vegas Reunited tentatively airs May 30th; Trishelle is in STUFF Magazine

The Real World: Las Vegas Reunited will be coming to you sooner than you think. Both the Real World: Denver and Road Rules: Viewers Revenge are both scheduled to be wrapping up within the month. With their end, will we be forced to just seeing new episodes of the Challenge until Sydney airs later in the late Summer?

Nope, the Reunited, the six-episode series reuniting Alton, Arissa, Brynn, Frank, Irulan, Steven and Trishelle on the 28th floor of the Palms Casino/Hotel will begin airing on May 30th. This is a tentative date and is subject to change, but we are less than a month away from seeing our old friends back in action.

Additionally, Trishelle (Las Vegas) appears in this month's Stuff Magazine with the girls of VIP Passport, a syndicated show that she co-hosts. Check out the pictures and the mini-interview, but pick up the magazine which is on newsstands now.
